DANgER!
To avoid serious injury or death, care must be taken when operating
row markers around overhead power lines.
DANgER!
If a cylinder has been disconnected or removed for any reason, do not
attach the rod end of the cylinder until the cylinder is cycled several
times to remove any air that may be trapped in the system.
The wings are folded and unfolded using a single hydraulic control valve. When the wings are unfolded, the spring-
actuated hydraulic latches lock the wings to the fold links so they pivot as one unit.
NOTICE
Always be sure planter is in the fully raised position before folding
the planter wings to ensure wing row units do not collide with center
section seed hoppers.
